HOOKSETT, N.H. – New Hampshire’s new scratch-and-sniff lottery ticket got off to a sizzling start.
The $1 bacon-scented tickets with a top prize of $1,000 hit the market in early January. Lottery officials went with a conservative print run just in case they were a bust but now expect the tickets to sell out within three months. Sales far outpaced other $1 scratch tickets, some of which were for sale for as long as eight months.
New Hampshire isn’t the first state to have a bacon-themed lottery ticket, or the first to have a scratch-and-sniff ticket. But it’s apparently the first to combine the two.
Kelley-Jaye Rosberg, games manager for the New Hampshire Lottery, said officials first settled on the idea of an “I Heart Bacon” ticket, and only later decided to add the scent. Virginia also sells an “I Heart Bacon” ticket, but it costs $2 and is unscented.
Colorado lottery officials say their scratch-and-sniff offerings — coffee, chocolate and bouquet — from a few years ago were among their worst sellers, but Rosberg says bacon’s pop culture cachet sets it apart.
“You can’t get better than bacon. There’s gingerbread, there’s peppermint, chocolate, coffee — different states have played with different scents but nobody had played with bacon yet,” she said. “Everybody likes bacon, and people who don’t like bacon are almost afraid to admit it.”
The state is promoting the new tickets by bringing The Bacon Truck, a Boston-based food truck, to various locations around the state to hand out free lottery tickets and actual strips of bacon. Those who tried both at a highway rest area Friday came away pleased, whether or not their tickets were winners.
“What’s better than free bacon?” said Dale Mottram, 54 of Bedford. He didn’t win anything, but said he would buy more tickets in the future.
“It smells very close to the bacon that’s in my hand,” he said. “It’s fun.”
Lauralee Lamontagne and Joan Farr, two friends from Manchester, made a special trip to Hooksett for the promotion, though both had purchased the tickets in recent weeks. Lamontagne, 48, said she has been sending them to friends.
Farr, 63, said she was skeptical of the scent before she tried it but is now a fan.
“It really smells like bacon,” she said. “It was pretty surprising.”
